I was on Atlanta, yet as a Patriots fan I trully was happy for them. And it is not that they don't deserve it. This is not what I said.
They do deserve everything they accomplished. Just that they were so far behind that game was not theirs to win anymore. Let me put it like this... they were out of FG range and were not in position to bite anybody.Not enough time.
To pull it off they needed Atlanta team to play for them as well.
If Atlanta would have acted even half as smart as the regular HS team does... they would have won the game 31:28
In basketball terms Atlanta hit the buzzer beater but scored that 3pt shot into their own basket...
And yes I do think about Seattle last drive 2 years ago... hand ball to Lynch and game is likely over... WTF was that
yesterday? You stand on 20 yeard line with 220 seconds to go, you are up by 8 and you do not make it 2 posession
game? I swear it looked like they said " you know what, **** that SB win... let's hand it over" ... Then again WTF did
Seattle coaches think passing the ball from 5 yard line 2 years ago while they had Lynch? Momentary lapse of the
reason? Beats me!
